Sadly Lacklustre ………

It's far too late now, but in Nigel’s humble opinion, if ever there was anywhere that could perhaps benefit from the artistic, festive skills of none other than our very own, beloved Darrell Fortescue Monkeey ……..

……. it’s has to be almost devoid of any magical seasonal glitter and sparkle …… Evesham shopping centre.

Three fenced off Christmas trees, one admittedly bedecked in cellophane wrapped candy cane type decorations, along with a single, soft toy reindeer, does not an unbridled Christmas spirit make, let alone raise a weak and half hearted ho ho ho!

And, what’s the  spooky monk with a Christmas elf headband atop his cowl and flashing Christmas light necklace round his neck all about?No wonder he’s clutching his rosary for dear life? Even poor Nigel was lost for one of his usually upbeat, poignant or sage comments.

It’s all rather lacklustre and joyless for words and as such Nigel has already started petitioning for serious questions to be asked in Parliament and Darrell to be approached to take on the challenge!  His heart is soooooooo in the right place, what on earth would we do without the little fella?

Oh, dear. In the words of Vic Reeves - "Very poor."

Not a patch on Motor World in Bilbrook.

Oh nooooooo - this looks rather sad - times are hard, people need some cheer. Not what one would expect in Evesham, beautiful place, did visit many moons ago. JantheFan x

Oh gosh that’s so forlorn and pitiful. It’s hard to believe someone is being paid to be in charge of such a sorry affair! Perhaps the shopkeepers could be encouraged to start a petition to employ the services of a willing band of volunteers…..led by Darrell??? I’m sure his services would turn the place around x
